Hello everyone out there in blogland... Hope today is treating you all well... The yard sale this past weekend, well... let's just say good thing we took Friday off cuz Saturday was a flop... Oh well.... all in all we didn't do too bad and we did get rid of some things so that is still good. I did get some of my goodies stuffed while we sat there and it was sunny too so....
Got a horrible headache that just didn't want to leave me all day Sunday and Monday so the week didn't start out too good and I hope it doesn't come back cuz we will be on vacation for a week... Vegas here we come.... Bre will be 21 and that is where she wanted to go.. Should be a blast...
So.. needless to say I haven't been very good in the crafting department... Have some more requests for pumpkins so have to get those done when I get back and finally finish things I have started that so need to be off my kitchen table.. I think that is a table under there anyways... hehe..
Hope you all have a wonderful week! Hugs, Tina

Hello friends!! I am bad....
Just wanted to check in.. I have been a little boring lately and not posting as much but haven't had much going on except trying to get ready for a yard sale at my daughter's house this weekend... I knew I had alot of clothes and junk but oh boy.... I even took some things out of my craft room that we probably won't ever redo and now I have a whole big drawer for something fun and even maybe a shelf... Need to do some rearranging and organizing, that room is a mess...
I haven't even had much time for making new craft goodies this week except for a couple orange pumpkins that I made for someone from my Tina's Primitive Attic Facebook Page and a couple white pumpkins that were requested from there as well.... Here they are...
This one has a little more prim looking moss on the top of it.
Hope to be back to posting more after this yard sale is over and I can get back to some crafting.. I have so many things sitting on my table that need to be cut out, painted or in the finishing stages. Boy do I have a mess.. haha...
**Update - uh oh... I am trying to clean out my things and what did I do on my way to lunch at my gramma and grampa's? Stopped at an estate sale across the street... It was weird going to this one though cuz they have lived there a long time and I used to babysit there son.... Not sure what really happened to his parents and he wasnt there for me to talk to... Hope his family is doing okay... Anyways.... what did I get? I don't have photos since I just got back from lunch with them but I got a comforter that I think is thin enough that I can still cut up and craft with, a white lace table cloth, 2 embroidered runners, an box of ornaments and some flannel sheets... I think I am in trouble.. teehee...
Hope you forgive me for all my slacking.... Hope you all have a great day!! Hugs, Tina

a Relaxing Weekend
Boy, I sure think our weekends should be longer.. teehee.. Who thought of this 5 day work week anyways... What a great weekend. Had some friends stop by and visit for a while Friday night... Saturday we spent the day at the lake. Our daughter's boyfriend's parents rented a lake spot for the summer and they have their trailer up there so we went and visited.. It wasn't really sunny or hot but I still managed to get a sunburn,, and what an awkward burn it is.. teehee... I didn't put sunscreen on my front side very well so it is the only side that got burnt.. haha.. I don't really tan anyways, usually burn then turn back to my blinding paleness... We had a great time out there relaxing and visiting though..
Yesterday my daughter and I went to a few yard sales but there just don't seem to be as many on Sunday.. Course we did go to quite a few that just forgot to take down their boxes... oh.. that is so annoying.. We went way out of our way to go check it out then nothing and they would have multiple signs still out.. Ahhhhhh!!!! Or... We would drive by and their stuff was still all covered up and it was after 9:30 even.. I did get a few things to craft with so excited about that and I only spent about $3.50 so a cheap day...
Then I was going to just make a couple white pumpkins real quick as I have had a couple requests for them and I ended up making a few more so I was crafting almost til bed time, not what I had planned but glad I got some finished and started as these are usually a big hit at the craft shows too...
Hope you all had a great weekend and that your have a fabulous day! Hugs, Tina

Just craftin like a crazy woman!!
Good morning or I guess afternoon for some of you lovely friends out there... I hope you have all had a great week so far. We are now back to the rainy dreary weather.. Not sure if we only got a tease of summer and that was it or what... Others have had it worse so I think we are still lucky.. teehee...
I have been trying to move my goodies to a new Facebook page. Since my Tina's Primitive Attic page was a business page when I commented on alot of sites it came up as my name instead of TPA so thought maybe I should change it over... Boy... talk about alot of copying and pasting... haha... Thank you to everyone who is a friend to me on there... It can be challenging trying to keep up so many sites.. haha..
I finished a couple more pumpkins last night and wanted to share with you. Go to the Fall Halloween suitcase for details.
Thanks for stoppying by! Hugs, Tina

Surprise waiting... and an Angel
Hellooooo.. Hope everyone had an enjoyable weekend! The Ritzville Blues Fest was such a great time. Hopefully our friends that went with us can go every year and make it a tradition. Lots of great blues bands, a little shopping and just spending time with some great friends!!
When I got home I had a surprise waiting for me.... Linda at Parker's Paradise had made three little cuties and the first 3 comments could get to pick which little doll they wanted...Can you believe she actually thought she wouldn't even get 3 comments, she is so silly.... Here is the one I received and I so love her... Thanks Linda!!

I didn't get much done this weekend since we were gone but I did manage to finish this cute Primitive Angel. She is an Olde Country Cupboard pattern.. I love how she turned out. I need to measure her and then she will be put into my suitcase named "Christmas / Winter" and will be for sale.
Thank you all for visiting me! Have a wonderful day! Hugs, Tina

Here I am.... busy... busy....what have I been doing??
Here I am... I haven't posted much this week but I have been trying to read some of the posts still.
We had a busy but great weekend. We have been blessed with summer, finally and it was a hot one... We ended up getting our dogs another pool. Here is a photo of our daughter's dog, Brody. There was water in it but between the dogs getting in and out and hair in it from Bella, it was time to change it... Brody jumped right in, ready for the new water to be put in it... He is so adorable with his under bite.. teehee...
Ya put a rock in the pool and he is busy busy... He gets it under his paws and scoots it around...Silly boy!!
This is Bella, our Newfie, when we brought her home in June 2010. Look at that face...
This is her now. Little bit bigger.. hehe.. She was a year old in April. She loves the water! She loves to splash the water but... she does not like toys in the pool.. If we throw them in, she gets them and takes them out of the pool and then gets back in... She is too funny...
Brody wants in but he isn't sure about being in the pool with Bella... teehee...
Both dogs love to paw at the animals on the bottom of the pool.. Sure wonder what they are thinking when they do that.. It's just too cute..
And... I can't forget my little Misty... She does not like water at all... So, no pictures of her even close to the pool but I didn't want to leave her out, so here she is...
What else has been going on? We have been helping our daughter move into her NEW house.. Yep, finally went though. We are so excited and so proud of her.. Not even 21 yet and did it all on her own... That isn't her house in the background.. Will have to take some photos of it to share.
We are also heading to the Ritzville Blues Festival this weekend so we have been getting our motor home ready. This is the first summer we haven't gone anywhere in it before now.. Just too much other stuff going on I guess..
and.... I have started some fall goodies.... Pumpkins... Snowmen... Angels..but I have been so busy I haven't had time to actually finish anything... Hope to get my tush in gear when we get back as I have to have some new things made by next weekend. Here is a sample of one of my new Snowmen. Sorry but he isn't done yet... hehe...
Thanks for visiting me and I hope you enjoy the rest of your week and weekend!! Hugs, Tina
